Parking ticket for expired VA inspection sticker?

Just curious why the Prince William County PD has their parking enforcement officers issuing PARKING tickets in a shopping center parking lot, for an expired VA STATE inspection sticker. I thought this would be a STATE Police enforcement issue. When the officer asked me why it was expired, I said I didn't realize it was. He said sometimes the year part of the sticker fades away(Which it did). All I could see was the month on the sticker.
I'm not sure why taxpayers are paying PWC police to patrol shopping center parking lots.  If I was illegally parked(fire lane, handicapped space) it would make sense. But an expired STATE sticker?  Please explain this to me.
Thank you
